There was an upright piano in the lounge, and they would sit together and sing along. I remember the band writing songs but not really practicing there as such. Songwriting involved sitting around knocking ideas about, trying out different tunes and words. That's how I got the piece of paper with the original lyrics to Doing Alright on it. I wrote in my diary Roger and Brian had been running through it, and Tim had also been scribbling some of the words.
